Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 229 / Wednesday, November 27, 2019 / Notices

acquired this site on October 9, 1934, for
the Wheeler Reservoir project. The
excavation in March 1934, undertaken
prior to the acquisition of the site, was
conducted using Federal funds in
anticipation of the inundation of the
site. This site was 350 feet long and 200
feet wide. Although described as a
mound, it appears to have been an
accumulation of shell, midden debris,
and natural floodplain soils, rather than
intentionally constructed earthen works.
No structures were identified, but there
were multiple hearths, midden-filled
pits, and human burials. There are no
radiocarbon dates for this site.
Recovered artifacts suggest multiple
occupations including Late Archaic
(4000–1000 B.C.), Early Woodland
(1000–500 B.C.), Middle Woodland
Copena Phase (A.D. 100–500), Late
Woodland (A.D. 500–1000) and
Mississippian (A.D. 1200–1500) periods.
The human remains include four adults
and one infant of indeterminate sex. No
known individuals were identified.
There are no associated funerary objects.
From February through March 1934,
human remains representing, at
minimum, three individuals were
removed from site 1MA4, in Madison
County, AL. TVA acquired a strip of
land around the periphery of Hobbs
Island encompassing this site on May
23, 1939, as part of the Wheeler
Reservoir project. The excavation in
March 1934 was conducted with
Federal funds in anticipation of the
inundation of this site. The site was a
shell midden 300 x 125 feet and
adjacent to the island’s shoreline. There
are no radiocarbon dates available for
this site, but artifacts from a nonmortuary context suggest Langston (A.D.
900–1200) and Hobbs Island (A.D.
1200–1450) phase occupations. The
human remains include two adults and
one child of indeterminate sex. No
known individuals were identified.
There are no associated funerary objects.

Native American human remains and
any present-day Indian Tribe.
• According to final judgments of the
Indian Claims Commission or the Court
of Federal Claims, the land from which
the Native American human remains
were removed is the aboriginal land of
the Cherokee Nation; Eastern Band of
Cherokee Indians; and the United
Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in
Oklahoma.
• The Treaty of September 20, 1816,
indicates that the land from which the
Native American human remains were
removed is the aboriginal land of The
Chickasaw Nation.
• Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the
disposition of the human remains may
be to the Cherokee Nation; Eastern Band
of Cherokee Indians; The Chickasaw
Nation; and the United Keetoowah Band
of Cherokee Indians in Oklahoma.

Abstract: The regulations at 30 CFR
part 250, subpart G, concern well
operations and equipment regulatory
requirements of oil, gas, and sulphur
operations in the Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) (including the associated
forms), and are the subject of this
collection. This request also covers any
related Notices to Lessees and Operators
(NTLs) that BSEE issues to clarify,
supplement, or provide additional
guidance on some aspects of our
regulations.
BSEE uses the information to ensure
safe drilling, workover, completion, and
decommissioning operations and to
protect the human, marine, and coastal
environment. BSEE analyzes and
evaluates these information/
requirements to reduce the likelihood of
an event similar to Deepwater Horizon
and to reduce the risk of fatalities,
injuries, and spills. BSEE also utilizes
these requirements in the approval,
disapproval, or modification process for
well operations.
Specifically, BSEE uses the
information in Subpart G to ensure:
• Certain well designs and operations
have been reviewed by appropriate third
parties/engineers/classification societies
and that, after one year, have been
approved by BSEE;
• rig tracking data is available to
locate rigs during major storms;

• casing or equipment repairs are
acceptable and tested;
• up-to-date engineering documents
are available;
• the BOP and associated components
are fit for service for its intended use;
• that the BOP will function as
intended;
• that BOP components are properly
maintained and inspected;
• the proper engineering reviews and
approvals for all BOP designs, repairs,
and modifications are met.
BSEE uses the information obtained
from Rig Movement Notification Report,
Form BSEE–0144, to schedule
inspections and verify that the
equipment being used complies with
approved permits. The information on
this form is used by all 3 regions, but
primarily in the GOM, to ascertain the
precise arrival and departure of all rigs
in OCS waters in the GOM. The accurate
location of these rigs is necessary to
facilitate the scheduling of inspections
by BSEE personnel.
Title of Collection: 30 CFR part 250,
subpart G, Well Operations and
Equipment.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0028.
Form Number: Form BSEE–0144.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Potential respondents are comprised of
Federal OCS oil, gas, and sulphur
lessees/operators and holders of
pipeline rights-of-way.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Respondents: Not all of the potential
respondents will submit information in
any given year and some may submit
multiple times.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 43,408.
Estimated Completion Time per
Response: 6 minutes to 2,160 hours,
depending on activity.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 160,842.
Respondent’s Obligation: Most
responses are mandatory, while others
are required to obtain or retain benefits,
or are voluntary.
Frequency of Collection: Submissions
are generally on occasion, daily, weekly,
monthly, quarterly, biennially, and as a
result of situations encountered
depending upon the requirement.
Total Estimated Annual Nonhour
Burden Cost: $867,500.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
The authority for this action is the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
